Being a finance professional had come across a scenario in a listed company where the bank was sharing a profit under the Musharika agreement but when the company registered a loss bank asked to change the formula.
It’s not about names and terms they are using. It’s all about the concepts and practices they implement.
Islamic Banking is Haram
Firstly the term. Calling anything Islamic means it comes from Islam. And Islam was completed by the prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
Now there will be people who say that’s because it is within the bounds of Islam that’s why it’s called Islamic. Which doesn’t make sense, because if we take anything that was never approved by Islam and add Islamic elements to it, it shall not work. Like doing a robbery after performing ablution would still be haram.
